183.
Which of the following is not present in portland cement?
A
$$C{a_3}A{l_2}{O_6}$$
B
$$C{a_3}Si{O_5}$$
C
$$C{a_2}Si{O_4}$$
D
$$C{a_3}{\left( {P{O_4}} \right)_2}$$
Answer :
$$C{a_3}{\left( {P{O_4}} \right)_2}$$
Phosphate is not a part of composition of portland cement.
184.
Sulphates of $$Be$$ and $$Mg$$ are readily soluble in water but sulphates of $$Ca, Sr$$ and $$Ba$$ are insoluble. This is due to the fact
A
the greater hydration enthalpies of $$B{e^{2 + }}$$ and $$M{g^{2 + }}$$ overcome the lattice enthalpy
B
high lattice enthalpy of $$B{e^{2 + }}$$ and $$M{g^{2 + }}$$ makes them soluble in water
C
solubility decreases from $$BeS{O_4}$$ to $$BaS{O_4}$$ due to increase in ionic size
D
$$BeS{O_4}$$ and $$MgS{O_4}$$ are ionic in nature while other sulphates are covalent
Answer :
the greater hydration enthalpies of $$B{e^{2 + }}$$ and $$M{g^{2 + }}$$ overcome the lattice enthalpy
Due to smaller size their lattice enthalpies are high but their greater hydration enthalpies overcome the lattice enthalpies and they become soluble in water. $$Ca, Sr$$ and $$Ba$$ sulphates are insoluble is water due to lower hydration enthalpies.
185.

186.
The substance not likely to contain $$CaC{O_3}$$ is
A
calcined gypsum
B
sea shells
C
dolomite
D
a marble statue
Answer :
calcined gypsum
Gypsum is $$CaC{O_3}.2{H_2}O$$
187.
One mole of magnesium nitride on the reaction with an excess of water gives :
188.
When $$BeC{l_2}$$ is hydrolysed, white fumes of gas are given out. The intensity of fumes intensifies when a rod dipped in moist ammonia is brought near the mouth of the test tube. The gas which comes out during hydrolysis is
Only $$L{i_3}N$$ is stable, others are not formed at all.

The difference of number of water molecules in gypsum and plaster of Paris is
A
$$\frac{5}{1}$$
B
$$2$$
C
$$\frac{1}{2}$$
D
$$1\frac{1}{2}$$
Answer :
$$1\frac{1}{2}$$
Gypsum is $$\,CaS{O_4}.2{H_2}O,$$ where as plaster of paris is $$\,CaS{O_4}\,\frac{1}{2}{H_2}O.$$
No. of water $$ = \left( {2 - \frac{1}{2}} \right) \to \frac{3}{2}\,{\text{or}}\,1\frac{1}{2}$$ molecules
